Overview

Agricultural biotechnology is the application of scientific tools and techniques, including molecular biology, genetics, and microbiology, to improve plants, animals, and microorganisms used in farming. It encompasses approaches such as marker-assisted breeding, genetic modification and gene editing, tissue culture, and the use of beneficial microbes and biological agents. The goals are to raise yields, improve nutritional quality, and make crops and livestock more resistant to pests, diseases, and environmental stresses such as drought, salinity, and changing climate, while also supporting more sustainable and resource-efficient production. Agricultural biotechnology spans the laboratory development of improved varieties and the field application of biological methods, including biological pest control and the use of microbes to support plant growth and resilience. These themes fall within the journal's scope on Agronomy Research, which covers crop improvement, sustainable production, and the response of agriculture to climate and environmental pressures. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to agricultural biotechnology and the use of biological and genetic tools to improve crops and farming systems.
